Agenda

  • Builder

      • pull 466 Updated runner.js with a better observer's topic for Fennec
    • Changes coming to private browsing bug 748604 - needs an owner
  • Roundtable
    • re-pack progress: ready to go, need to confirm repacking against 1.8.1
    • Jeff -> Brazil
    • Wes is working on a new bug dashboard: http://kwierso.github.com/Jetpack-Bugzilla-Organizer/newrewrite/ (Feedback welcome!)
    • Would be really cool to use `Target milestone` field in bugzilla when we land the related fix. (And ensure always filling bugs for errors/exception that users can face.)
    • Nigthly support and AMO. Needs to wait for final 1.9 (?) to upload a fix for nightly support.
    • bug 683217 ( " {Cu} = require("chrome"); doesn't let you use Cu.import("somejsmodule");" ) has reared its ugly head.

  • we should use target milestone field in bugzilla - easier tracking of bug <==> release!
  • Cu.import behaviour differs in SDK
    • bug 683217 reveals this is actually unintended behaviour
    • traditional platform devs expext `import *` behaviour, but current behaviour is preferred as it does not blindly pollute the scope.
    • options: document current behaviour, implement expected behaviour, implement something else?
